Tag match, Miz TV with Finn Balor set for WWE Payback pre-show
Though Dean Ambrose and The Miz have feuded since coming to Raw in the Superstar Shakeup, it doesn’t seem like there will be an Intercontinental Championship match at Payback.
Instead, there will be a Miz TV segment on the Payback pre-show with Finn Balor as the guest. There will also be a tag team match on the pre-show as Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson take on Enzo Amore & Big Cass. Both of those were announced on last night’s episode of Raw.
Payback takes place this Sunday and is WWE’s first pay-per-view after the Superstar Shakeup. Though it’s a Raw PPV, two of SmackDown’s champions will be on the show as the rosters are still in flux. Kevin Owens will defend the United States Championship against Chris Jericho, and Randy Orton will face Bray Wyatt in a “House of Horrors” match. WWE.com doesn’t indicate that Orton’s title is on the line in that match.
The updated card for Payback is:
- Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman
- Seth Rollins vs. Samoa Joe
- Raw Women’s Champion Bayley defending against Alexa Bliss
- Randy Orton vs. Bray Wyatt in a House of Horrors match
- United States Champion Kevin Owens defending against Chris Jericho
- WWE Cruiserweight Champion Neville defending against Austin Aries
- Raw Tag Team Champions The Hardys defending against Cesaro & Sheamus
- Miz TV with Finn Balor (kickoff show)
- Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson vs. Enzo Amore & Big Cass (kickoff show)
